I just noticed something, not sure its in the devlog, if it is there i have read over it xD
Wen a request basket or shopstand is out of coin or items, it will report that status to you via the “Boundless” chat channel.
How amazing is that?
Thank you devs <3
Sadly it doesn’t always work. At least 1 time for sure I know it didn’t work. But yes it’s really nice to know while I’m out mining or building my iron sold
Or your freakishly cheap coal!
So you bought it up? I would have hand traded
The shop stands need some type of visual clue if they have coin in them imo, having to run around your stands checking for coin is a time sink if you have a big shop. I was thinking about some type of symbol above stands that have been used like a rotating $ sign or something!
Would be nice if there was a piggy bank or something of the sort that just automatically got the coin from the stands
I’d be happy with at least a “profit” text over stands with coin in them.
I would like the item to hover a bit and slowly bob up and down if the request basket is still active. And look inert like it does now if the coin is drained.
Motion is a good indicator of active/inactive status. Just take a look at the guild helixes!
My idea was either changing the cloth color or removing it completely when empty, motion might be hard to notice from far away or it’d have to be quite exaggerated. But any indicator would be good imo, just give us something so we don’t run to them just to see they’re out of coin.
The feedback that has come up before about removing the item completely is that some ppl still like the economic information an empty basket provides. So adding any sort of visual indicator to the active state will make everyone happy
I said the cloth, not the item.
Like green cloth has money and red is empty
I think in some of the larger shops, a bobbing motion might make me seasick…
Well it shouldn’t be a problem if the visual effect is only seen by the stand owner.
Oh, I misunderstood, I thought everyone would see it
I think everyone should see it. If the shop owner can see there is no coin, then so should the poor person looking to sell. They should not have to waste time going up to empty request baskets.
Oof. Dp you know the processing that would eat up? Every city would be a lag fest.
This I like. A lot.
Yeah sure, I was thinking more about sale stands than sell baskets. 
Cloth could still work. Keep it red for no sales and green to show some items sold
